Please, Address the Aim-Dressing problem

"Aim-Dressing" is known to be the source of many frustrations for a very long time.

It causes killers to lunge into walls since release. This feature proposes making hits "Look nicer" but at what cost? The developers themselves have said it never gives you a hit that is not supposed to land and they also have acknowledged that it is doing things out of order and making so that the killer is displaced to lunge into an object.

So, I ask, why has this been neglected for 4 years when it is a known problem that affects all killers on a regular basis? Is there a complication which has made it impossible to rework, remove or fix? Because it seems like it.

    Honestly it's becoming more noticeable when it makes me miss an attack. Does it "dress up" attacks if they're ever going to somehow miss? A lot of the attacks I end up missing because of this feature I would have hit if it didn't lock me onto the survivor and make me attack towards a wall when I could have lunged around it.

    I've noticed with dedicated servers I'm occasionally missing point blank attacks as well when it blatantly should hit when no exhaustion perks are into play. It's actually becoming a bit frustrating and when these ghost attacks happen it's game changing because the killer loses a lot of momentum over this.

    Because if Killers suffer from a bug, its fine, because the devs dont cear. Same as many other different buggs that effects your gameplay.

    Doubt it. They're still in denial and won't even admit it's autoaim

    I'm pretty tired of visibly snapping to the left or right on a blink lunge to smack a box or pallet. Why would they ever think that was a good idea? What player would ever encounter that and think "Oh snap! I'm glad it forcibly moved me away from my intended spot to hit an inanimate object! This is rewarding!" The killers that rely on precision become hilariously unplayable under higher server load.

    I know, when my lunge is forcibly pulled to the left or right (after a blink) and I am not moving in that direction its pretty blatant its a "lock" or "auto aim"....
